Created attachment 127236 [details] changing from Desktop to Folder layout SUMMARY I can only reproduce this behavior if I have two or more widgets on desktop. Notes widget shrinks more each time I switch the desktop layout. My icons are arranged in columns and aligned to right but this behavior also occurs when icons are arranged in rows and aligned to left. Watch the attached screen recording please. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. add analog clock and notes widgets to your desktop 2. increase the size of Notes widget 3. change desktop layout EXPECTED RESULT widgets size and position on desktop should not change SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 5.18.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.68.0 Qt Version: 5.14.2
